About I know there are these yellow grains or dots seen in the photo but these are not grains, actually these are the pollens of the flower and I didn't want to clone them with PS, I liked to keep the flower naturally as it is just for some level adjustment and cropping.

Camera settings: 3 sec - f/40 - FL 105 - ISO 200 - Tripod - +4+2+1 Close-up lenses - Natural light.

Very very nice Macro here Khaled. If I were you I'd run a color noise reduction in order to get the grain out. Then up the saturation to a more vivid yellow, then hit it with Unsharp Mask to get those edges really crisp. Great work.

I totally agree with Christopher Peace. nice picture


Paul's Photos   {K:34954} 2/21/2006
love the abstract look... nice colors.. good work


Kevin H   {K:22502} 2/21/2006
Excellent composition, really looks beautiful and you still know it is a flower. The colors are really well saturated but it is too bad it is soft, doesn't allow you to see the details. Keep up the good work.


Khaled Mursi Hammoud   {K:52411} 2/21/2006
Thanx dear Christopher for your concern... actually I didn't want to play much with PS... I know may be little soft but I found it'll be more grainy if I used sharpness.
Thanx again my friend, well appreciated.
Khaled.

Beautiful color! I like the pinwheel pattern.

HI Khaled,
Beautiful patterns, they seem to GLOW!
Very pretty colors.
Could be sharper, but still nice. Sometimes
with all those close-up lenses, it's so
difficult to focus.

Have a GR8 day,
Lori :)
